We believe skiing is for everyone. Designed for those who use a wheelchair or have difficulty coordinating their lower limbs, our Adaptive Sit-Ski Lessons in Courchevel provide specifically-tailored tuition to ensure you can enjoy the thrills of the mountain safely and with confidence. If you are a paraplegic or have had a lower limb amputation then this is the discipline for you.
We hold annual sit-ski training courses for our instructors covering the equipment, skiing technique and adaptive skiing teaching methods. Kind and patient, our instructors know the mountains by heart and have the understanding and experience to teach and accompany you.
You can choose and request what suits you:
Piloted Sit-skiing is for people who are partially or totally dependent. The sit-ski is fitted with a bar for the instructor to ‘drive’ the sit-ski around the slopes. It offers all the sensations of skiing, and the skier can participate as much as they want or is able to. (available in the morning and in the afternoon)
Tandem Sit-skiing from Tessier makes sit-skiing a pleasurable experience for anyone who isn’t able or doesn’t want to ski on their own. Seated in a large, comfortable seat, let yourself be guided by your ‘driver’ and enjoy the thrill of sliding whilst taking in the spectacular mountain views. (available in the afternoon)
